You are right and that is also one of the reasons why I mentioned paint. If
you mix it in paint, it can be compared with a very thick layer of dust.
Apart from that the reflective paint is very interesting, it is the only

Hakan,
Could you stop circle dancing for a moment?
To refresh your memory, you first mentioned aluminum as a
possible component of insulative construction. When stated that
aluminum's best use was as a radiant barrier, not an insulator,
you come back requesting something in the way of "scientifi

Dear Todd,
I thought I covered the whole of this answer in,
1. Manipulation of the emission factors for the construction.
2 Control of air leakage and window insulation.
I am not clear on if you wanted to have a list or you wanted to do it
yourself, if you look at our site you will find tho
27 matches
